'Green Over Gray' about Emilio Ambasz with a Presentation on the Future of Spiritual Architecture by Stadia Arkitekter

Emilio Ambasz does not design buildings but situations: Views over Andalusian forest landscapes, ascents along hanging gardens, and walks through underground greenhouses. It’s all about connecting human consciousness with the forces of nature, the timelessness of myths, and a perception of deep cosmic temporality that allows us to transcend our individual interests and life circumstances. But what do these buildings really say about architecture’s ability to connect humans to something greater? And how can the architecture of the future meet humanity’s spiritual needs within the framework of a secular culture? Learn about Ambasz, cosmic longing, and the monumental architecture of the future with the film Green Over Gray.

The film will be introduced by Panuela Aasted and Kristiane Fenger from the architectural firm Stadia Arkitekter.
